The USVI provides any basing we need

No it doesn't. PR has bases that can be rebuilt. USVI doesn't. There is no legit basing there currently. It would be completely retarded to let go of PR. Not opinion. Fact.

Roosevelt Roads is mostly closed, having been reduced greatly down to a logistics facility. The closure created a huge economic downtown in the whole western part of PR, but was demanded by the far left attitude of PR voters, which is why it must never become a state.

Easily replaced by:

The U.S. Virgin Islands has a naval base in Charlotte Amalie, St. Thomas, and a submarine base in Crown Bay, St. Thomas. [1, 2]

LOL at the field having to be taken back as financial irregularities occurred immediately after being transferred to VI Civ Control.

"If it can dock & service cruise ships, it can serve just about any USN Ship"

It's much more important to reopen Midway, Johnston, Palmyra, and get Canton & Baker back which was retardedly given to one of the stupid faux-independent states of the Pacific which depend almost wholly on US welfare handouts.

EDIT: Kirabati, a fakeass country. More Carter BS.

Palmyra I think is the secret Ultraelite post apocalyptic hideaway using Greenwashing as cover, where Bezos blew Obama.

None of these islands ever had any signs of permanent inhabitants.

Of course environmentalists will howl like pagan primitives over the eggs of the Sooty Tern or some shit.

Roosevelt Roads is mostly closed

I flew out of Roosevelt Roads for a couple of weeks back in the 1980s. I had time to snorkel and see historical sites. I noticed that the island is beautiful, most natives do not speak English, and Navy pilots are crazy.

Folks, the amazing things about Trump's new CBP Home self-deportation app are two-fold.

One, it completely humiliates the Biden administration, which used the CBP One App to facilitate illegal immigration. The new app facilitates DEPORTATION.

Two, it perfectly utilizes the power of INCENTIVES while freeing up ICE resources.

Illegals who screwed up by coming here can self-deport by entering all of their information - the incentive is they won't be ARRESTED and BANNED from reentry if they do this.

Meanwhile, every self-deportation is one less deportation ICE must perform.

PLUS, you have to remember that ICE is primarily targeting known criminals. The kind of migrant who uses this app probably isn't top priority.

So not only is the Trump admin in a genius way repurposing the CBP One App, but they are actually going to be able to reach the less threatening illegals they may not have even swooped up in all of Trump's 4 years.

Incredible. I am impresssed.

What stops the illegal from filling out the form as requested, but then staying in the US under an assumed name? Then the illegal has covered himself if he is caught and deported and can still come in legally later under his real name.

That's what biometric data is for. But you bring up a good point. What is stopping me from submitting that on behalf of my H1B co-worker, thus causing him a shit ton of headaches?

Why The Fuck is a provincial premier conducting foreign trade policy on behalf of Canada?

The previous administrations infiltrated Ukrainian agents into our country into all levels of government. Some are Intel legends and Monarch DPD spies. Trump is revoking the legal status of 240,000 resident Ukrainians. Ukeys were complicit in the assassination attempts.

Good thing they are halfway around the world. At least it dilutes them a bit.

Well, if a Province can conduct foreign policy a Province can also apply for statehood.

The US is meant to be a high wage, low iron cost of living, expensive luxuries, but low cost of doing business country.

The U.S. Department of Education employs around 4,245 civil servants, making it the smallest Cabinet-level department in terms of staff size.
Here's a bit more detail:
Washington D.C. Headquarters:
The headquarters and most operations are located in Washington D.C., with around 3,100 employees occupying parts of several buildings, including the Lyndon Baines Johnson Building.
Regional Offices:
Approximately 1,100 employees work in 10 regional offices around the country, representing the Department's programs and interests on a regional basis.

Bet the word got out that the US will pay a huge amount per Greenlander if the annexation goes through.
